Blessing

Blessing is the name you wear,

and it’s one chosen with care,

for you are a sister and a friend,

whose love endures until the end.

Blessings are what you bestow

on all of whom you get to know.

Blessings are your plain adornment,

of which you have a rich assortment.

Blessing, with your painful past,

unlike the mould from which you’re cast,

how did you survive the pain

without a lifelong tear or stain?

Blessing, sister, child of God,

you are your Father’s live Ephod,

a sign by which all of man can see

that God triumphs in you and me.
